Impact Assessment

The price band revisions will restrict intraday price movements for these 57 securities, potentially reducing volatility but also limiting trading opportunities. Securities with tighter bands (2% and 5%) will experience more stringent price controls, which may impact liquidity. These measures are typically applied to securities exhibiting abnormal price behavior or requiring enhanced surveillance oversight. Traders and investors in these stocks should adjust their trading strategies accordingly to account for the reduced price movement limits.

Impact Justification

Price band changes affect trading activity and volatility control for 57 securities, indicating heightened surveillance measures but limited to specific scrips rather than market-wide impact.
